Assignment submission receipt email

Question

Hi everyone,

I’ve noticed that Brightspace sends an automatic email to learners every time they submit an assignment, even though I didn’t add an email address in the Notification Email field when setting up the assignments. I would like to stop this automatic submission receipt email but still want learners to receive emails when awards are unlocked. How can I adjust this?

Hello @Samar.A.8205,

Thank you for reaching us through the community.

Based on your description, it appears that there is currently no feature available to turn off the automated Assignment submission receipt email.

If you would like more options, I would highly suggest the submission of a PIE item, or upvoting one that suits your use case.

I have found one similar PIE idea: https://desire2learn.brightidea.com/ideas/D7882

It doesn't seem like there is a way to disable the assignment submission confirmation emails.

Unfortunately, no — I haven’t found a solution yet. I agree it would be helpful to turn them off or have a weekly summary instead, but so far I haven’t come across a setting for that.
